Powered by the New Orleans Jazz & Heritage Foundation, the Crescent City Blues & BBQ Festival celebrates Southern soul with legendary local and international blues and R&B talent, plus the greatest assemblage of home-style barbecue to be found within the city limits. Come for performances by Johnny Sansone, Ruth Foster, Washboard Chaz Blues Trio, Jimmy “Duck” Holmes, Linda Gail Lewis, and many more. What's even more ridiculous than getting all these folks in one place is that it's free to watch. At Lafayette Square Park, 602 Camp Street, New Orleans. 5:30 pm–8:30 pm Friday; 11 am–8:30 pm Saturday and Sunday. Free. crescentcitybluesfest.com.
